It has been busy around here with the shop and getting ready for Thanksgiving and Christmas. We all have been buying stuff and wrapping like crazy (we already used up 6 rolls of wrapping paper!). I had wrapped some presents for the boys for my mom and put them up in the bedroom that they are staying in. Paul found them and loves to take them out and pass them around and even shake a few. He loves going into that room (especially since he knows where they are now) and playing with all the boxes. I am looking forward to having him more interactive in Christmas now that he is older. Last Christmas he did not do much with the presents. Peter is also having fun, learning from his brother's example. It seems weird to see how quickly the second child learns compared to the first. Peter loves to grap at the gifts and pull off the bows. He even has been tearing the wrapping paper! I can't wait until they are old enough to understand what Christmas is all about and the interaction of everything (presents, decorating, the tree, Christmas lights, and everything). Here are some movies of them with the presents.

P.S. The update on the house is that the owner counter-offered to us for $2,000 less than the asking price. We counter-offered with $220,000. I should know more the beginning of this week. Please pray that we would know God's will concerning this house and that we would make the right decision about it
The boys are so cute. It's fun to start Christmas early :)
